CEO/Principal, John V. Lindsay Wildcat Academy Charter School
Website: www.jvlwildcat.org
The word “wildcat” is a description of someone who drills, where others have failed, with the expectation of striking it RICH. That’s what Ron Tabano, founder/principal of Wildcat Academy Charter School, does. But his team strikes it RICH with high risk, urban teens. Kids who are suspended from traditional school, truants, — or even already in the criminal justice system — graduate and go on to college or have a job. Required throughout the curriculum is work experience. For the record, character development is always front and center.
